It's not fair!!!

For the record, life's not fair!!

People 3 houses down from our street have electricity, and are at home calmly watching TV while I'm moving frozen foods to the church so they don't spoil!

Oh wait, not everyone is sleeping their own bed tonight. Sorry, Donnie. I guess life's more unfair to you.

Oh, and there are people trapped away from home. Sorry evacuees, I guess my life is a little less bad than I thought.

Oh, and I will be with my family tonight. To our soldiers, marines, airmen, and sailors, words cannot express how much better it is for me because of you. Sorry, and thank you...

And then there's the fire department, EMS, ER workers, police, sheriffs, National Guard....

There's people without houses....people without power that can't put their stuff in church freezers....(I'll move some of mine. We'll make it fit!)

And then there's God's love for me, for which I'm not worthy, but Jesus Christ has died to give me anyway.

Ultimately, life's not fair. And I'm very blessed that it isn't. I owe all I have to the One who made life eternally unfair, and much gratitude to those who cover my shortcomings on this side too....
